Linear and projective connections over a smooth manifold [PDF]
The principal bundles of the first order coframes and the second order coframes, as well as factor bundle of centroprojective (coaffine) coframes are considered.

PROJECTIVE STRUCTURES AND -CONNECTIONS [PDF]
We extend T. Y. Thomas’s approach to projective structures, over the complex analytic category, by involving the$\unicode[STIX]{x1D70C}$-connections. This way, a better control of projective flatness is obtained and, consequently, we have, for example, the following application: if the twistor space of a quaternionic manifold$P$is endowed with a ...

Two approaches (of È. Cartan and of T. Y. Thomas and J. H. C. Whitehead) to the study of projective connections are compared. Spray geometry is reviewed, the Thomas-Whitehead construction and its generalization to sprays are discussed, and afterwards the Cartan theory in the affine case is described.

Higher Order Connections [PDF]
The purpose of this article is to present the theory of higher order connections on vector bundles from a viewpoint inspired by projective differential geometry.

Metric Connections in Projective Differential Geometry [PDF]
We search for Riemannian metrics whose Levi-Civita connection belongs to a given projective class. Following Sinjukov and Mikes, we show that such metrics correspond precisely to suitably positive solutions of a certain projectively invariant finite-type linear system of partial differential equations.

The Grassmann manifold is the set of all -dimensional planes of an -dimensional projective space, with dim. One of the submanifolds of the Grassmann manifold is a complex of -planes if the dimension of the complex exceeds the difference .

Projective spacetime symmetry of spacetime crystals
Wigner’s seminal work on the Poincaré group revealed one of the fundamental principles of quantum theory: symmetry groups are projectively represented. The condensed-matter counterparts of the Poincaré group could be the spacetime groups of periodically ...

MEASURING IN IMAGES WITH PROJECTIVE GEOMETRY [PDF]
There is a fundamental relationship between projective geometry and the perspective imaging geometry of a pinhole camera. Projective scales have been used to measure within images from the beginnings of photogrammetry, mostly the cross-ratio on a ...

Generalized Affine Connections Associated with the Space of Centered Planes
Our purpose is to study a space Π of centered m-planes in n-projective space. Generalized fiberings (with semi-gluing) are investigated. Planar and normal affine connections associated with the space Π are set in the generalized fiberings.
